I went upstairs to pack my leavin' trunk
I ain't see no blues, whiskey made me sloppy drunk
I ain't never seen no whiskey, the blues made me sloppy drunk
I'm going back to Memphis, where I'll have much better luck
Lookout Mama you asked me to be your King
She said you can man, if you want it, keep it hid
Please don't let my husband, my main man catch you here
Please don't let my main man, my husband catch you here
You know the blues, I woke up with them three different ways
One said go the other two said stay
I woke up this mornin' with the blues three different ways
One said go, the other two said stay
Wake up mama I got something to tell you
You know I'm a man who loves to sing the blues
You got to wake up baby, I got something to tell you
You know I'm the man, and I love to sing the blues
I went upstairs to pack my leavin' trunk, you know
I ain't see no blues or whiskey made me sloppy drunk
I ain't never seen no whiskey, the blues made me sloppy drunk
I go home baby and I lay down on a board
